Product Overview

Glypure® 70 is a 70% glycolic acid solution from PureTech Scientific, is a high-purity alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) used in cosmetic and personal care formulations. Its chemical properties enable effective skin penetration, stimulating cellular activity and promoting hydration in the stratum corneum. In anti-aging applications, Glypure 70 helps regulate epidermal water balance, improving skin texture and appearance. Furthermore, it enhances dermal matrix production and collagen synthesis, reducing the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles while improving skin elasticity. Glypure 70 is manufactured in the USA by PureTech Scientific in Belle, WV, and meets stringent quality standards for cosmetic-grade glycolic acid.
